Study will be conducted in 80 subjects (40 subjects in each group) in India. The primary outcome measures will be assessment of monthly changes in fasting & postprandial plasma glucose levels [baseline value, value on 30th day, 60th day, and 90th day of treatment] and assessment of changes in HbA1C% (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) value [from baseline to end of study value]. The secondary objectives would be assessment of Quality of Life (QOL) of patients will be done using WHO-QOL (brief) questionnaire (Appendix-D) [from baseline visit and on every alternate follow-up visit viz. Visit-II (day 30), Visit-IV (day 60) and Visit-VI (day 90)], changes in Serum insulin level [from baseline to end of study value], reduction or increase in dose of OHAs [from baseline to end of study], clinical symptoms of Type 2 DM i.e. Polydypsia, Polyphagia, Polyuria, & fatigue (refer appendix-C) [Time frame: 3 months], Global assessment for overall improvement will be done by the investigator and by the patient himself / herself on study completion and assessment of safety.
